Asaichi (あさイチ) is a Japanese weekday morning talk program airing on NHK General Television, hosted by Naoko Suzuki and Hanamaru-Daikichi Hakata. It airs weekdays from 8:15 a.m. JST to 9:54 a.m. JST.




History


Asaichi started on March 29, 2010, evolving from NHK General Television's original morning information program Seikatsu Hot Morning. Yumiko Udo, the-then NHK Announcer, and Yoshihiko Inohara, a member of V6, one of Japan's popular pop groups, hosted this program from the first run.
Targeting mainly women in their 40s, this program dealt with a wide variety of themes, from information about health and money, cooking tips, and living improvement tips, to infertility problems, menopausal disorders, and the problem of sexless relationships.
In April 2018, Hanamaru-Daikichi Hakata and Yurie Omi took over the job of the main presenters from Udo and Inohara.
On February 10, 2021, NHK announced that Omi would be stepping down from the main presenter at the end of March because she would be leaving NHK, and handing over her job to NHK Announcer Naoko Suzuki.
On March 30, 2021, Naoko Suzuki started her anchor job.




Format


As this program begins just after Renzoku Terebi Shōsetsu aired from 8:00 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. JST, it begins with a few minutes' comments related to the drama by the presenters.
This program is divided into two sections: the first section is from 8:15 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. JST, and the second one from 9:05 a.m. to 9:54 a.m. JST. Between these sections, news headlines air from NHK's News Center. If there is breaking news during the program, it is temporarily suspended for the News Center to broadcast the news.
Fax and email are available for viewers' real-time comments or opinions when the program is on air. Some of them are read out by the anchors during the program.
